For some reason the ST and AE sequences sometimes do not use Blade of Justice and just hangs while doing everything else. Very weird. I need to use the NOCD sequence to force it to use Blade of Justice, then the other sequences start working properly again.

I removed the trinket lines from my NOCD sequence, so maybe it has to do with that?

@OAK Thank you for this! you fkn rock! I know it’s all relative, but what ms do you run again?

250 is the recommended ms.

I have also noticed this, but only on the ST roatation. AOE works a dream

MUST IMPORT WAKECOMBO MACRO - The sequence calls this to ensure the Wake cast sequence resets on combat.

Complete Overhaul - Use of Repeat Blocks and Castsequences to more line up with Rotation Guides and Opener on Wowhead and Icy-Veins. If you play TEMPLAR, you MUST use ALT to guarantee a Hammer of Light as the sequence does NOT spam Wake of Ashes and instead lines it up with cooldowns.

Not sure why use Divine Protection both in ST and the AE, it“s situational spell to use, not straight away on a pull (Which happens now). I removed both those, other then that, really great GSE macro, good job!!
The only thing I would say is negative is macro does have a hard time keeping up the dot dawnlight, usually on a boss, retri has a 1-2 minute timer but when I try it on dummies, it does not stay on, even though it“s your TOP dps during a raid fight. So it should be focus on having 100% uptime on it.

In my experience, Icy Veins is always outdated. Having said that, AOE pumps a little harder and ST seems consistent in this version.

now that it wont fire automatically anymore the hammer of light, is there any way to move it to use shift instead of alt, or do i have to go through every block and modify, Alt doesnt work for my hand at all,
thats why i have been loving your macros cause not been needing alot of modifiers, but i can reach to shift so would be nice
And if not possible, is there a way i can download the older version that had it automated? found so i went back to 1.5 so long :smiley:

And forgot, i LOVE your work

I don’t know, feels like I’m parsing worse since yesterday’s update (went from blue on warcraftlogs to grey)

Interesting thing. I’vnt noticed DS was on ST sequence -_-. And about dawnLight, how can we improve this ?

EDIT : MB, I read DS instead of DP

PS : OAK thank you again

Soooooooo I’m going to be honest…This rotation is ok at best. I’ve been playing pally for years and when I manually go though the rotation I pull around 900k-1mil DPS single target…your macro gets around 600k DPS It favors using your HP builders when at full HP even more so after using WoA and it wont use the charges to use FV it would rather use Judgement, BoJ or HoW till they are on CD then use FV…wasting HP right there. Also it is horrid at keeping Dawnlight dot up. It should be #1 damage by a mile. Other than that it is great for beginners.

Wow, all the hate. If you dont like it, dont use it. In case you havent realized, GSE doesnt know how much holy power you have and cannot favor one spell. It doesnt know when a cooldown is up. All a sequence can do is try and make it more probable that one spell goes off over another. I know it’s your first time posting, but to use your first post here by poo-pooing on someone’s sequence, thats a garbage use of a post. Make one better, or make your setup better. It works great for me. If it doesnt work great for you, then just dont use it.

Welcome to rotation macros, where they wont ever get as close to human input as you’d want them to. Just how it goes, and people need to learn that.

Its called constructive criticism. I never said it was bad l simply compared it to how it stands to a mythic raider. But putting someone down as you have, is against the ToS. Please edit your post so you wont get flagged.

Yea I accidently came across a yt video about a warrior since I only ever tanked on one, curiosity got me wondering how one compares to a class that I know like the back of my hand. I even said if your just wanting to use it for just normal use its great for beginners.

Yeah, thats generally how it goes. I’d love to be able to make my macro pump out top dps but sadly it just isnt doable with GS:E. Not without 1000’s of hours of work and constantly tweaking. Even then, that would make it tailored specifically to one character and its stat setup, armor, etc.

  1. he wont get flagged cuz even i took what you said as trolling toward him.
  2. There a re alot of raiders who use this sequence and are not having any issues with dps numbers. (getting high Parse)

This will be the end of this discussion.

Go back to your mythic raid, Mr. RacetoWorldFirst… You don’t belong here. You will never understand.
